1: www.michaelperks.com www.littlemonkeymetal.com | Michael Perks brings the cold element of steel to life. From sheets of steel Michael cuts, layers, bends & welds metal to the verge of his imagination. His different approach to metal has resulted in new techniques for steel statues such as clean purposeful cut-outs to abstract culminations. Over the past 22 years Michael has worked as a millwright, welder & snowmaker for the ski industry. He became know for his ability to fix large scale, obscure problems with innovative inventions of his own making. This ability to think differently, create with his own hands & work with huge objects can be seen in his art. Michael is now co-owner of Little Monkey Metal Works, a large-scale plasma art company that specializes in decorative railings, elaborate fire pits, artistic signs & other custom metal works. | Best Of Show New Artist Calgary Stampede Western Art Show 2011
